Swyvl Feature

Turn your 360° photos into a virtual tour of the site.

Upload your 360° photos and Swyvl connects them into a street-view-style walkthrough — with a minimap showing where you stand, GPX-accurate positioning, and a branded share link your clients open in any browser.

A folder of 360° photos isn't a site walkthrough

You walked the site and captured everything. The delivery should let your client walk it too.

Your client gets a zip of unstitched-looking JPGs.

Sent as plain files, 360° photos open as warped, distorted panoramas. Your client can't look around, can't tell where each photo was taken, and gives up.

Every photo opens in a proper 360° sphere viewer.

Click and drag to look in any direction. Connected 360° photos link into a street-view-style virtual tour — your client steps through the walk exactly as you captured it.

Nobody knows where each photo was taken.

Filenames like IMG_4213.jpg say nothing about location. A weak camera GPS fix leaves photos scattered — or missing from the map entirely.

Upload a GPX track and every photo lands on the line.

Swyvl draws your route on the map and places each 360° photo along the track by its capture time. The GPX takes priority over the camera's GPS, so no photo is stranded off the line.

Dedicated tour software means another subscription and another export.

Standalone tour builders are one more tool to maintain — and the tour lives apart from the rest of the deliverable: the orthos, point clouds, video, and reports.

The tour lives alongside everything else you captured.

One share link carries the 360° tour and the rest of the delivery — point clouds, orthomosaics, drone video, PDFs — all viewable in the browser, all on the same site map.

A virtual tour built around the map

Not a slideshow of panoramas — a walkthrough that always knows where you're standing.

Connected 360° tours

Connected 360° photos link into a street-view-style walkthrough. Step through the walk photo by photo, with fast photo-to-photo navigation.

Synced minimap

A minimap shows exactly where you're standing on the site as you move through the tour. Switch to split view or a full-screen map whenever you need the wider picture.

GPX geolocation

Upload a GPX track and Swyvl draws the route on the map and places your 360° photos along it by capture time — the GPX takes priority over a weak or missing camera GPS fix.

360° sphere viewer

Click and drag to look in any direction. Every panorama renders properly in the browser — no warped flat JPGs, no plugin, no install.

Layer control

A "Map content" panel switches layers on and off, clusters or separates markers, and colour-codes collections — so a long capture walk stays readable.

Share with clients

Deliver the tour through a branded share link — your logo, your colours. Clients open it in any browser, no account needed, and every view is logged in your dashboard.

How it works

1

Upload your 360° photos

Add a GPX track from your capture walk if you have one. AI classifies each file and assigns the 360° viewer automatically.

2

Swyvl builds the tour

Photos are placed on the site map — along the GPX track by capture time — and connected into a street-view-style walkthrough with a synced minimap.

3

Share one link

Your client opens the branded share link in any browser and walks the site. You track engagement from your dashboard.

Let your clients walk the site from their desk.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask before sharing their first 360° tour.

How does Swyvl turn 360° photos into a virtual tour?
Upload your 360° photos and Swyvl connects them into a street-view-style virtual tour. Viewers step from photo to photo along your walk, with a synced minimap showing where they're standing on the site.
Can I geolocate 360° photos with a GPX track?
Yes. Upload a GPX track alongside your photos and Swyvl draws the route as a line on the map and places your 360° photos along the track by their capture time. The GPX takes priority over a camera's built-in GPS, so a weak or missing camera fix no longer leaves a photo stranded off the line.
Do my clients need software or an account to view the tour?
No. Viewers never need an account or any software. Your client opens a share link in any browser — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge — and the tour loads immediately.
Can I see the map and the 360° view at the same time?
Yes. The tour has a synced minimap, a split view showing the map and the 360° photo side by side, and a full-screen map mode. The map always shows where the current photo sits on the site.
Can I share the tour with my own branding?
Yes. Tours are shared through Swyvl's branded share links — your logo and accent colour on every delivery. You can track views and control access from your dashboard.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 sites and 5 share links — enough to build and share a real tour. No credit card required.
